Congratulations, everyone! Your entries have been sent on to the final round judges. If your name isn't on the above list, I'll be emailing you your feedback in the next day or two.

Next week would normally be another writing prompt week, but we're going to take this round off. There's a couple reasons for this, one of the biggest being I need some time to line up more judges. But also, while I love the writing prompt contests, I need a break from the thousands of emails it requires.

So consider this a mid-year intermission. The next writing prompt will be June 20th. If you have any thoughts on authors who you'd like to see judging, please send me an email with your suggestion, and I'll see what I can do.

See you back here tomorrow where we'll be talking about what to do after you've typed THE END.

Congratulations to all the winners! =D This was fun... though I pretty much knew I wasn't going to make it lol. Don't we all wish we could make a perfect manuscript the first time around? lol. Congratz again!! ^_^ Must have some pretty good writers if everyone had such a tough time judging... haha.
